On: Why do you not make the code available under a 'source code repository'?

To be fair, seeing .bak or .config or private key files, etc. accidentally pushed to github is not exactly uncommon.

.config sure, but .bak? That's what revision control software is for! :D

People can still add them accidentally to the repository unless they have configured properly .gitignore/.hgignore/... By the way GitHub has a repository of .gitignore files for various tools and languages [1].
